Thanks -- we get down there time permitting but not as much as I would like.
Regarding the sound panels, I did play around with them a bit and didn’t find that much difference with varies placements. I was originally going to make additional panels to sit lower on the walls but decided against it after these went up. Before the panels the room was pretty hard – sheet rock walls/ceiling and leather furniture so the panels made a fairly substantial difference in sound quality. When looking at placement points along the wall I did try to factor in reflection points and speaker placement but I didn’t go crazy working out the math. I found some good reference material on the web that helped calculate (rough estimates) the required square footage of panels and placement factors.
I'm certain the room would benefit from additoinal tweaking but I'm pretty happy with how its come together so far.
